Ready for 15-man challenge

After winning the South African Sevens Player of the Year award and also being nominated for the global prize, Seabelo Senatla is now ready for the next step in his career.

And come next year’s Super Rugby tournament, the winger will make his first full shift from the Sevens game to the 15-man code.

Senatla, 23, will play in the first four tournaments of the Sevens Series – the last of which will be in Australia on 4-5 February – before joining coach Robbie Fleck and the Stormers as they search for their first gold in Super Rugby.

Having been tipped as a future Springbok, Senatla suffered a wrist injury while on Sevens duty at the Olympic Games earlier this year and admits that he is still working hard to fully recover from the injury.

He has also made peace with the fact that he is not currently with the Springboks in the UK and preparing for a pre-season tournament with the Sevens team in Namibia next weekend.
